于是以色列从但到别是巴,以及住基列地的众人都出来,如同一人,聚集在米斯巴耶和华面前。
2 and alle the lynagis of Israel camen to gidere in to the chirche of `the puple of God, foure hundrid thousynde of `foot men fiyters.
以色列民的首领,就是各支派的军长,都站在 神百姓的会中;拿刀的步兵共有四十万。
3 And it was not `hid fro the sones of Beniamyn, that the sones of Israel hadden stied in to Maspha. And the dekene, hosebonde of the `wijf that was slayn, was axid, `how so greet felonye was doon;
以色列人上到米斯巴,便雅悯人都听见了。以色列人说:“请你将这件恶事的情由对我们说明。”
4 and he answeride, Y cam with my wijf in to Gabaa of Beniamyn, and Y turnede thidur.
那利未人,就是被害之妇人的丈夫,回答说:“我和我的妾到了便雅悯的基比亚住宿。
5 And lo! men of that citee cumpassiden in nyyt the hows, in which Y dwellide, and thei wolden sle me, and thei bitraueliden my wijf with vnbileueful woodnesse of letcherie; at the last sche was deed.
基比亚人夜间起来,围了我住的房子,想要杀我,又将我的妾强奸致死。
6 And Y took, and Y kittide hir in to gobetis, and Y sente partis in to alle the termes of youre possessioun; for so greet felonye and so greuouse synne was neuere doon in Israel.
我就把我妾的尸身切成块子,使人拿着传送以色列得为业的全地,因为基比亚人在以色列中行了凶淫丑恶的事。
7 Alle ye sones of Israel ben present; deme ye, what ye owen do.
你们以色列人都当筹划商议。”
8 And al the puple stood, and answeride as bi word of o man, `that is acordyngli, with out ayenseiyng and with out delay, We schulen not go awei in to oure tabernaclis, nethir ony man schal entre in to his hows;
众民都起来如同一人,说:“我们连一人都不回自己帐棚、自己房屋去。
9 but we schulen do this in comyn ayens Gabaa.
我们向基比亚人必这样行,照所掣的签去攻击他们。
10 `Ten men be chosun of an hundrid, of alle the lynagis of Israel, and an hundrid of a thousynde, and a thousynde of ten thousynde, that thei bere metis to the oost, and that we, fiytynge ayens Gabaa of Beniamyn, moun yelde to it `for the trespas that that it deserueth.
我们要在以色列各支派中,一百人挑取十人,一千人挑取百人,一万人挑取千人,为民运粮,等大众到了便雅悯的基比亚,就照基比亚人在以色列中所行的丑事征伐他们。”
11 And al the puple, `as o man, cam togidere to the citee bi the same thouyt and o counsel.
于是以色列众人彼此连合如同一人,聚集攻击那城。
12 And `thei senten messangeris to al the lynage of Beniamyn, `whiche messangeris seiden, Whi so greet felony is foundun in you?
以色列众支派打发人去,问便雅悯支派的各家说:“你们中间怎么做了这样的恶事呢?
13 Bitake ye the men of Gabaa, that diden this wickidnesse, that thei die, and yuel be doon awey fro Israel. `Whiche nolden here the comaundement of her britheren, the sones of Israel,
现在你们要将基比亚的那些匪徒交出来,我们好治死他们,从以色列中除掉这恶。”便雅悯人却不肯听从他们弟兄以色列人的话。
14 but of alle the citees, that weren of `her part, thei camen togidere in to Gabaa, to helpe hem, and to fiyte ayens al the puple of Israel.
便雅悯人从他们的各城里出来,聚集到了基比亚,要与以色列人打仗。

21 And the sones of Beniamyn yeden out of Gabaa, and killiden of the sones of Israel in that dai two and twenti thousynde of men.
便雅悯人就从基比亚出来,当日杀死以色列人二万二千。
22 And eft the sones of Israel tristiden in strengthe and noumbre, and dressiden schiltrun, in the same place in which thei fouyten bifore;
以色列人彼此奋勇,仍在头一日摆阵的地方又摆阵。
23 so netheles that thei stieden bifore, and wepten bifor the Lord `til to nyyt, and counseliden hym, and seiden, Owe Y go forth more to fiyte ayens the sones of Beniamyn, my britheren, ether nay? To whiche he answeride, Stie ye to hem, and bigynne ye batel.
未摆阵之先,以色列人上去,在耶和华面前哭号,直到晚上,求问耶和华说:“我们再去与我们弟兄便雅悯人打仗可以不可以?”耶和华说:“可以上去攻击他们。”
24 And whanne the sones of Israel hadden go forth to batel in the tother dai ayens Beniamyn,
第二日,以色列人就上前攻击便雅悯人。
25 the sones of Beniamyn braken out of the yates of Gabaa, and camen to hem; and the sones of Beniamyn weren wood ayens hem bi so greet sleyng, that thei castiden doun eiytene thousynde of men drawynge swerd.

以色列众人就上到伯特利,坐在耶和华面前哭号,当日禁食直到晚上;又在耶和华面前献燔祭和平安祭。
27 and axiden of her staat. In that tyme the arke of boond of pees of God was there in Silo;
那时, 神的约柜在那里;亚伦的孙子、以利亚撒的儿子非尼哈侍立在约柜前。以色列人问耶和华说:“我们当再出去与我们弟兄便雅悯人打仗呢?还是罢兵呢?”耶和华说:“你们当上去,因为明日我必将他们交在你们手中。”
28 and Fynees, the sone of Eleazar, sone of Aaron, was souereyn of the hows. Therfor thei counseliden the Lord, and seiden, Owen we go out more to batel ayens the sones of Beniamyn, oure britheren, ethir reste? To whiche the Lord seide, Stie ye, for to morewe Y schal bytake hem in to youre hondis.
29 And the sones of Israel settiden buyschementis bi the cumpas of the citee of Gabaa;
以色列人在基比亚的四围设下伏兵。
30 and the thridde tyme as onys and tweis thei brouyten forth oost ayens Beniamyn.
第三日,以色列人又上去攻击便雅悯人,在基比亚前摆阵,与前两次一样。
31 But also the sones of Beniamyn braken out of the citee booldli, and pursueden ferthere the aduersaryes fleynge, so that thei woundiden of hem, as in the firste dai and the secounde, and killiden bi twey paththis `the aduersaries turnynge backis; of whiche paththis oon was borun in to Bethel, the tother in to Gabaa. And thei castiden doun aboute thretti men;

32 for thei gessiden to sle hem `bi customable maner; whiche `feyneden fliyt bi craft, and token counsel, that thei schulden drawe hem fro the citee, and that thei as fleynge schulden brynge to the forseid paththis.
便雅悯人说:“他们仍旧败在我们面前。”但以色列人说:“我们不如逃跑,引诱他们离开城到路上来。”
33 Therfor alle the sones of Israel risiden of her seetis, and settiden schiltrun in the place which is clepid Baalthamar. And the buschementis, that weren aboute the citee, bigunnen to opene hem silf litil and litil,
以色列众人都起来,在巴力·他玛摆阵,以色列的伏兵从马利·迦巴埋伏的地方冲上前去。
34 and to go forth fro the west part of the citee. But also othere ten thousynde of men of al Israel excitiden the dwelleris of the cite to batels; and the batel was maad greuous ayens the sones of Beniamyn, and thei vndurstoden not, that perisching neiyede to hem on eche part.
有以色列人中的一万精兵,来到基比亚前接战,势派甚是凶猛;便雅悯人却不知道灾祸临近了。
35 And the Lord smoot hem in the siyt of the sones of Israel, and `thei killiden of hem in that dai fyue and twenti thousynde and an hundrid men, alle the werryours and drawynge swerd.
耶和华使以色列人杀败便雅悯人。那日,以色列人杀死便雅悯人二万五千一百,都是拿刀的。
36 Sotheli the sones of Beniamyn bigunnen to fle, `whanne thei sien, that thei weren the lowere. And the sones of Israel sien this, and `yauen to hem place to fle, that thei schulden come to the buyschementis maad redi, whiche thei hadden set bisidis the citee.
于是便雅悯人知道自己败了。先是以色列人;因为靠着在基比亚前所设的伏兵,就在便雅悯人面前诈败。
37 And whanne thei hadden rise sudenli fro hid places, and Beniamyn yaf backis to the sleeris, thei entriden in to the citee, and smytiden it by the scharpnesse of swerd.
伏兵急忙闯进基比亚,用刀杀死全城的人。
38 Sotheli the sones of Israel hadden youe a signe to hem whiche thei hadden set in buyschementis, that aftir that thei hadden take the citee, thei schulden kyndle fier, and that bi smook stiynge an hiy, thei schulden schewe the citee takun.
以色列人预先同伏兵约定在城内放火,以烟气上腾为号。
39 And whanne the sones of Israel set in thilke batel sien this; for the sones of Beniamyn gessiden hem to fle, and thei sueden bisiliere, whanne thretti men of her oost weren slayn;
以色列人临退阵的时候,便雅悯人动手杀死以色列人,约有三十个,就说:“他们仍像前次被我们杀败了。”
40 and `the sones of Israel sien as a piler of smoke stie fro the citee; also Beniamyn bihelde bihynde, whanne he siy the citee takun, and flawmes borun in hiye,
当烟气如柱从城中上腾的时候,便雅悯人回头观看,见全城的烟气冲天。
41 thei that feyneden fliyt bifore, `ayenstoden strongliere with face turned. And whanne the sones of Beniamyn hadden seyn this, thei weren turned in to fliyt,
以色列人又转身回来,便雅悯人就甚惊惶,因为看见灾祸临到自己了。
42 and thei bigunnen to go to the weie of deseert; while also aduersaries pursueden hem there, but also thei, that hadden brent the citee, camen ayens hem.
他们在以色列人面前转身往旷野逃跑;以色列人在后面追杀。那从各城里出来的,也都夹攻杀灭他们。
43 And so it was doon, that thei weren slayn of enemyes on ech part, nether ony reste of men diynge was; and thei felden, and weren cast doun at the eest coost of the citee of Gabaa.
以色列人围绕便雅悯人,追赶他们,在他们歇脚之处、对着日出之地的基比亚践踏他们。
44 Forsothe thei, that weren slayn in the same place, weren eiytene thousynde of `men, alle strongeste fiyteris.
便雅悯人死了的有一万八千,都是勇士。
45 And whanne thei that leften of Beniamyn hadden seyn this, thei fledden in to wildirnesse, and thei yeden to the stoon, whos name is Remmon. And in that fliyt the sones of Israel yeden opynli, `and yeden in to dyuerse places, and killiden fyue thousynde men; and whanne thei yeden ferther, thei pursueden hem, and killiden also othere twei thousynde.
其余的人转身向旷野逃跑,往临门磐去。以色列人在道路上杀了他们五千人,如拾取遗穗一样,追到基顿又杀了他们二千人。
46 And so it was doon, that alle that felden doun of Beniamyn in diuerse places, weren fyue and twenti thousynde, `fiyterys moost redi to batels.
那日便雅悯死了的共有二万五千人,都是拿刀的勇士。
47 And so sixe hundrid men leften of al the noumbre of Beniamyn, that myyten ascape, and fle in to wildirnesse; and thei saten in the stoon of Remmon foure monethis.
只剩下六百人,转身向旷野逃跑,到了临门磐,就在那里住了四个月。
48 Forsothe the sones of Israel yeden out, and smytiden with swerd alle the remenauntis of the citee, fro men `til to werk beestis; and deuourynge flawme wastide alle the citees and townes of Beniamyn.
以色列人又转到便雅悯地,将各城的人和牲畜,并一切所遇见的,都用刀杀尽,又放火烧了一切城邑。
